Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 Medium Onions thin sliced
  • 2 Quarts of Instant Pot Vegetable Stock
  • 3 tablespoons Cognac
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 2 Bay Leaf
  • 1 cup of White Wine
  • 3 TBS Flour
  • 2 TBS Butter
  • 1 Tbsp Cooking Oil
  • Seasoning to Taste
  • 1 TBS Vegan Worcestershire
  • Parmesan Cheese 4 ounces
  • Swiss Cheese Grated, about 12 ounces

Instructions
 

  • Set your crock-pot to high.
  • Thinly slice onions and put them into the crockpot with 1 cup of white wine and season with salt, pepper, and bay leaf.
  • Place the lid of the crockpot slightly off-center so steam can release. Cook on high for 6 to 8 hours, stirring occasionally. Onions should cook down completely without burning.
  • About 30 minutes before serving, combine Butter, cooking oil and flour and make a roux. Once the flour is a light caramel color, add stock to lightly thicken and warm. Season to taste.
  • Turn oven to broil.
  • Split onions between bowls, top with stock. Float cognac on top of stock. Top with a slice of french bread and cover in cheese.
  • Melt cheese under the broiler for up to 2 minutes, or until cheese is melting and just starting to brown.
  • Enjoy!
